I disagree with E. I think saying that 7% "regularly suffer heart attacks" doesn't mean the same as saying that 7% "suffer a heart attack". In fact, logically if 7% regularly suffer heart attacks, the percentage of people who suffer only one heart attack in their lifetime should be greater than 7% and probably greater than 10%. Therefore I think C should be the best answer and I do not understand why is it E. Could you please help me?

POE = process of elimination
My bad now I think answer is not E but C
Author wants us to believe that diet containing milk and meat is not good for heart and 10% people taking this diet suffer from heart problem
We need to counter this argument based on the fact
E, D ) will strengthen the argument
B ) changes the set so that cant be our answer
So C and A is remaining
C makes a counter attack by showing that heart problem can also come when not consuming milk and meat diet
